Nyctimantis is a genus of frogs in the family Hylidae.[2] It is monotypic, being repredented by the single species, Nyctimantis rugiceps, commonly known as the brown-eyed treefrog.[3] It is known from the Amazonian Ecuador, Peru, and Colombia, and it is likely to occur also in adjacent Brazil.[2] Its natural habitats are primary and secondary lowland tropical rainforest.[1]
Nyctimantis rugiceps breeds in bamboo and tree holes. Females raise the tadpoles on trophic (unfertilized) eggs.[1]
